They still do exist. You can buy them at just about any store in the US. Mine are fifty year old Tupperware salt and pepper shakers. They may outlast the universe.

They were disposable salt and pepper shakers. I know you think it saves money but you can bet some bean counter at corporate did the math to prove that wrong.
Not even remotely the same but in the 90’s mcdonalds still had salt and pepper shakers on the tables. I knew a guy who loved throwing them in the bag when he got up from the table along with the ten straws he grabbed and wad of napkins. He really was under some serious financial stress in no way due to anything he had done. I refused to use the salt and pepper shakers at his house and he kept bugging me as to why. I told him he didn’t want to know but he insisted. Finally I told him about the time I saw some kids going from table to table licking the tops of the shakers. He immediately threw them all away. Later they started to reappear and it was because he figured out at the first of the month they replaced them and the new one usually had the seal left on them.
Before you trash the guy for doing that. The guy made 80 grand one year and could barely afford food. All that money went to paying his wife’s medical bills. She had grown up inside the boundary of a superfund site out in new mexico and had all kinds of tumors and other problems. It was called a pre existing condition and his insurance wouldn’t pay for hardly anything. They finally divorced so she could get SSI. That was in the early 2000’s. This country sucked then and it still sucks.
We bamboozled ourselves. The Brits woke up to the fact the metric system was better and changed. Sure they still have their idiots who like the old system there but they ignore them. Whereas here we let that small minority rule. That is why we are using a broken old system and why we are the only country that is. Because we let the stupid rule in order to beat some imagined enemy.
Some live in Mississippi.
At fifty three years old I support this. If I had suspected my elders earlier I wouldn’t be out the equity from two houses.
I boycotted them months back. I came to lemmy to get away from reddit mods.
I blocked twatter at my router along with some other muskie shit.
This must have been the wrong thread.
I know. A sucker is born every minute. Paying to win is how some of them are able to win.
They know what we want. A game where any dlc is cosmetic only. A game where there are no micro transactions at all. Something that will run on a older PC without any performance problems. Something without an online requirement.
They know what we want but that is something they are unwilling to build.
Always something there to remind me.
I’m not telling you. You can figure it out yourself.
The reference is to a old action movie called Demolition Man. In the movie there was only one restaurant that survived the franchise wars. In the US it was Taco Bell and in Europe it was Pizza hut.

Ours moved in to a strip mall and went pick up or delivery only. The old location is a really over priced shitty coffee house now.
They only won that in the non US version. Here in the US it was Taco Bell

My old reddit account was monitored and everytime I used the word snowflake I would get bot slammed. I complained but nothing ever happened. I really made a snowflake mad one day.
It could be a rock formation. Nobody says uncanny valley when its a sexy looking knot on a tree.
Mine didn’t. Gave it all to my golden child sister.
